Rigathi Gachagua & William Ruto

Rigathi Gachagua: Rigathi Gachagua, William Ruto's former deputy and now a rival, warned young Kenyans against protesting, claiming the state had 'organised terror' against them. His statement highlights the internal political divisions surrounding the event.

William Ruto: William Ruto, as the President of Kenya, is the primary target of the anti-government protests. His administration is accused of broken promises, corruption, and using excessive force against protesters, leading to a decline in his public approval.

Rigathi Gachagua: The event centers on the High Court's ruling regarding his impeachment, which could politically vindicate him or strengthen the position of his political opponents. He is seeking compensation and a declaration that his impeachment was unconstitutional.

William Ruto: A court endorsement of the impeachment would be a political boost for William Ruto>>> and his allies, allowing them to argue that the courts independently validated the impeachment process.

Rigathi Gachagua: Rigathi Gachagua, former deputy president, blamed corrupt businesspeople for the sharp rise in fuel prices, aligning with the opposition's stance.
